First and foremost, I must extend an enormous thank you to my beautiful, talented, and always-inspiring wife, Hyun. If not for her support, this book would honestly not exist. My deepest gratitude also goes out to my family: Mom, Dad, Brian, Juliana, Nicolas, Umma, and my sisters Hannah, Min, and Carroll. I’m truly blessed to have such a wonderful and supportive family. Shout out to all the inspiring people I’ve had the honor of working with over the years. I’ve learned so much from all of you. Thanks to Keith, Michael, Andrew, Scott, Shelley, Kelly, the inimitable Karthik, Jesse, Jaworski, Beth, Mat, Anbu, Ashwin, Kevin, Ann, all my PIC/RCS homies, the EAB dev/UI team, the entire ABC/EAB UX team, and finally my new Vistaprint Digital family. Thank you to all my close friends who have balanced me, challenged me, shared a drink, or just a laugh: Bryan, Alan, Chris, Kyril, Brandon, April, and the whole Expansion Broadcast + DC crew. Thank you to everyone at Packt for bringing me along on this amazing (and sleepless) journey. And finally, thanks to my coauthor Jacob for all the work he did in realizing this book and for agreeing to even write a book with someone he had known for all of two weeks.

Writing a book (my first!) is hard, and I don’t think I would have been able to do it without the support of my loving boyfriend, Matt. He weathered my frequent complaining in stride and kept me focused when I needed it most. For that, I am incredibly grateful. Huge thanks to all of my AddThis family who have always inspired me to keep learning and pushed me to do my best work. To all of my friends and family, who were patient with me when I became a recluse to finish this project, thank you. You are loved, and I promise not to do this again for a while! Finally, to Eric for pulling me along on this adventure. I definitely didn’t know what I was getting myself into when I agreed to this, but I can’t imagine having a more dedicated and capable partner.
